Howard Gets Clocked and Punishes Torres

[user340040]

Niveau 24 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

The player on the button limped in. Blas Torres was thinking about his decision in the small blind, and as he was, Lance Howard asked how much the button had in total, as he was in the big blind and wanted to think ahead to his decision. The response never came, and Torres moved all in for roughly 500,000. Howard then asked for a count on the small ,blind and as he was getting it, he again requested to know how much the button had: "Is that three brown chips and, like, 200k in pinks?"

The button responded, "It's 650,000 in this pile plus the purple on the side."

Howard then continued his calculations, speaking for a couple of seconds, and Torres called the clock on him. Howard said, "You called clock, wow," and then put his chips in. The button ended up folding.

Lance Howard:
Blas Torres:

The board ran out , and Torres was sent to the rail while the button shook his head as he said he had folded a king.
